Opening Reception for Local Artist Exhibition at Bankwell June 4th

Thursday, June, 4, 2015 @ 5:30 pm - 7:00 pm

As part of an ongoing effort to support local artists, Bankwell is featuring the newest collection of paintings by local resident Ceal Swift themed “Door County, USA” through August.

The community is invited to view the exhibit anytime during banking hours, which are 9-5 weekdays and 9-noon Saturdays at the 208 Elm Street branch. The public is also invited to attend an opening reception for the artist on Thursday, June 4th, from 5:30-7:00 p.m. Refreshments will be served.

Ceal is locally known as the former greeter of Gate’s, the Forest Street restaurant that her husband, Jeb, had operated for 36 years prior to their recent retirement. Ceal Swift has recently “entered a new journey” in life, creating acrylic paintings of landscapes and dog portraits. She is inspired by her travels and love of animals. Ms. Swift has been studying at the Silvermine School of Art for the past 10 years and is a member of the Carriage Barn Arts Center, Stamford Art Association, and the Newtown Society for Arts.

Ms. Swift’s paintings may also be seen at Marly’s Restaurant in Wilton, CT, and at Anna’s Art Gallery, Art Provo, Provo Golf Club, and Maison Creole, all located in Providenciales, Turks and Caicos.

While she has been in numerous group and juried shows, this will be her 6th solo show.
